26s on a 3/5 drop??

[NeverSatisfied]

To all you guys running 26s and riding low how do u do it? Have a chance to put some 26s on my Tahoe they have 295/30 tires on them just really wondering if it would work? I'm ok if I gotta raise the front up a little the truck currently sits at 32" front and 32.5 rear any help would be appreciated

I had 26s on my tahoe for the summer but with a 2/3 belltech drop i had 305/30 and had to do sum metal trimming up front it wasnt that bad only full lock turns i rubbed other than that it was great

I know my front will have to be raised a little guess I may just have to do a test fit and go from there

Yea i raised it up a lil but i guess cus my tires were so wide i had to do sum trimming

What was the offset and width of your wheels? These are 26x10 with a +30 offset

my custom 3/5-6 kit
295 25 26
26x9.5 with 38mm offset
No issues

26x10 with 295 25 26 should clear also.

I'm not needing a new drop kit love my Mcgaughy's kit just wondering if these 26x10 with +30 offset would even be worth looking into

i was putting that as a reference. Your using spindles so front tires get pushed out a little so in front will prob rub a little

I could deal with a little rubbing

I'm rolling on 26's and it's not that's bad for being 26's and having rubberband tires. I have 255/30/26 tires which are perfect fit.

My setup is Belltech spindles, Belltech street performance shocks all the way around, uncut Z71 jounce stops, Tonys 6" springs, airlift bags, Spohn upper and lower 4-link bars, adjustable Spohn panhard bar, 3/4" bumpstops, free-travel mod, and I only had to do minor trimming in the rear, a little on the wheels well liners on the inside corners and then you sometimes have to cut the top shock bolt flush so it doesn't hit your rim… but for the most part it rides good and love my 26's

What kind of offset and how wide are your wheels?

I don't mean to hi-jack the thread OP but I have a very similar question and thought I would just post in here.

I too have a 3-5 drop and curious if 305/35/24 +18 will fit without issues.



EDIT**

Never Mind, Question answered. Sorry again OP

They're 26x9.5's

 

[NeverSatisfied]

These are 26x10 wonder how much of a difference it would make

I've heard it can be the difference between rubbing and not rubbing but don't take my word for it..

The other thing is I don't want to have to run smaller tires than what's on there cause of some if the roads I have to go on

What 26" wheels have you seen with those dimensions?? It seems like the larger the wheel the less the offset. I've been trying to find some wheels with those dimensions (9.5" wide with ~35mm offset).....well besides billets.

custom 3 piece wheels and shaved mounting pad so more lip.

26x9.5 with 25mm-30mm offset with 295 25 26 will work also
